    I think I'll trim down some 223 brass for 300 blk today.

    Luckily I haven't gotten anything stuck yet.

    Yeah, I'm going to get some more done today too...until it warms up a bit out there, and then get some winterizing done. Sprinkler system drain out, and a few other things done. I wanna scalp the yard too, makes raking leaves much easier later on.

    It's a Lee product, Bogie. Cream in a little tube, and it does dry up after a few minutes.

    The tube says right on it, that it eliminates stuck cases...so I'm sure it will never happen again.

    There must be some better stuff out there I assume.

    All kinds of options. Lots of people make their own case lube. And there are some aerosol sprays too.

    Have you entered her before, and how'd she do?

    Heya HB.

    I'll use what I have until it runs out, and find something better. It was the first one I stuck, and I should have thrown it away in the first place. Still learning.
